Hundreds of French nationals have left Ivory Coast on charter planes as a peace deal appears to be on the verge of collapse. Many more of the 20,000 French nationals in Ivory Coast are planning to leave after four days of anti-French protests earlier this week. Supporters of President Laurent Gbagbo accuse the French of forcing him to sign a power-sharing agreement with rebels who control the largely Muslim north of the country. Rebels say they have been promised the defence and interior ministries but this is not contained in the official text of the agreement. The army and two cabinet ministers have condemned the deal and said it should be renegotiated. Abidjan is reported to be quiet on Thursday and banks and shops have reopened in the commercial capital of the world's largest producer of cocoa, the raw ingredient for chocolate.
